And then don't be surprised when you approach something with love and the little shimmer of fear that might accompany it in your approach blows up in your face when it meets its daddy. Love and fear neutralize each other, but choose your battles wisely, so to speak. Which is impossible with love, since it doesn't choose battles. One of my teacher once said, it is always better to have one's heart open and hurting than to have it closed. True and maybe providing further encouragement for doing so, but one can also acknowledge the reasons why hearts close in the first place, and that defines whether a teaching is based on love or fear, in connecting to others and treating them as if they were you or expecting everybody else to be isolatedly strong like you. Receiving help when you are weak, in acceptance of the weakness, is creating strength, since it is an experience of unconditional love. Those who withhold help because they believe it further encourages the weakness (regardless of the recipient's openness) feed the weakness with energy, through their own judging of it and through withholding love. That, too, is of course understandable. The greater an effort you make to better yourself, the more difficult it can become to maintain it in a parasitic environment. Thus people close their heart in reaction to overwhelming tasks.
